PRSA Dues Payments: Terms and Conditions

By making an online payment for PRSA membership dues and related charges, participants agree to accept the following terms and conditions:

1. Member will select and authorize one of the payment options below during the online subscription process:

NON-RECURRING PAYMENTS

A. One-year lump-sum payment. Member authorizes PRSA to charge a one-time, non-recurring lump sum payment on your credit, debit or bank card in the amount equivalent to one year of annual PRSA membership dues and related charges.

B. Two-year lump-sum payment. Member authorizes PRSA to charge a one-time, non-recurring lump sum payment on your credit, debit or bank card in the amount equivalent to two years of annual PRSA membership dues and related charges.

Note: This option is not available for Associate members.

RECURRING PAYMENTS

C. Automatic annual renewal. Member authorizes PRSA to automatically charge an annual recurring payment on your credit, debit or bank card in the amount equivalent to one year of annual PRSA membership dues and related charges.

The month in which PRSA will charge your card is based upon your membership expiration/paid through date. For example, if your PRSA membership expires Jan. 31, your membership will be renewed in February. PRSA will then charge your card on Feb. 10 or Feb. 25.

Note: This option is not available for Associate members.

D. Automatic quarterly payment. Member authorizes PRSA to automatically charge a quarterly recurring payment on your credit, debit or bank card in the amount equivalent to one-quarter of annual PRSA membership dues and related charges.

National and Section dues, and if applicable, initiation or reinstatement fees, are charged in four equal payments. Chapter dues may be collected quarterly, depending on availability.

A $15 fee is charged every year, on the first quarterly installment, for this service.

The month in which PRSA will charge your credit, debit or bank card is based upon your membership expiration/paid through date. Your first quarterly payment will be deducted on your renewal date. PRSA will then charge your card every three months starting from your renewal date. For example, if your PRSA membership expires Dec. 31, your renewal date is January. PRSA will then charge your card on Jan. 10, April 10, July 10 and Oct. 10.

2. Acceptable methods of payments include Visa, Mastercard, and Discover. We cannot accept checks, cash or other forms of payment if recurring payments are selected.

3. For all recurring payments, PRSA will automatically charge funds to your credit, debit or bank card on either the 10th or 25th of the month in which your payment is due.

4. We are not able to defer any charges or schedule specific payment dates other than on the 10th or 25th as described above.

5. For all recurring payments, PRSA will automatically continue to charge your credit, debit or bank card each year unless you opt out.

6. PRSA will not mail you dues invoices for all recurring payment plans. You will receive an email notice reminding you that you are enrolled in one of the recurring payment plans and that you are scheduled to be charged. At that time, you will authorize PRSA to charge your credit, debit or bank card on the agreed upon amount on said date. Or, you may cancel the recurring payments and choose to pay your dues another way.

7. Should your credit, debit or bank card number be declined, we will contact you for a valid one. If a valid card number is not provided, and dues are not collected within 30 days, PRSA reserves the right to deactivate your membership.

8. If you cancel your membership in the middle of your payment plan, the full balance owing on the account shall become immediately due and payable.

9. All dues are non-refundable and PRSA membership is non-transferable.
